We sat down with famed Disney animator Dale Baer to discuss his career.

Dale trained under renowned Disney Legend John Lounsbury, animating on classics such as Robin Hood, Winnie The Pooh, and The Rescuers.

He went on to start his own studio, Baer Animation, which for many years was a very successful commercial studio. In this time period he kept connections with the Disney studio by working on Roger Rabbit, Prince and the Pauper, and the Lion King.

When the market for commercials declined Dale Baer returned to Disney in 1998 where he has since supervised such characters as Yzma in Emperor’s New Groove, Slim in Home on the Range, Wilbur Robinson in Meet the Robinsons, Owl in the latest Winnie the Pooh movie, as well as once again animating Mickey Mouse in the short film Get A Horse.

Once upon a time, there were groups of artists that didn’t get credited for their work on an animated cartoon.

For example, many ink and paint girls didn’t get credit in some Disney features. And on Looney Tune shorts, only the animators got credit but their assistants, the inbetweeners, the ink and paint deparment, didn’t get any credit.

Well, thing have changed. Now everyone who work on an animated cartoons gets credit right?

…uh…no. This still happens today.

Chance, Larry, and Luis decided to record a discussion they had on this very subject, in a car ride after lunch. Take a listen as we discuss this interesting topic.
